After 15 years building a $100B revenue business and scaling cloud infrastructure with @awscloud, I've seen firsthand what hyperscalers need to grow, and what's slowing them down. Today, that challenge is bigger than ever.

Helix was built for this moment: bringing together all the components hyperscalers need to deploy critical AI infrastructure at scale. And to break a critical bottleneck slowing down the benefits of AI for organizations and people worldwide.

Thanks for the conversation, @toddbishop. Coming back to lead @awscloud was an incredible opportunity. I’m so proud of the team, all the capabilities we developed for customers, and the business milestones achieved. AWS is better positioned than anyone to expand possibilities for customers going forward. Leaving things in good hands with Matt Garman and the team. geekwire.com/2024/adam-selip…

After almost 15 combined years at AWS, I am going to be moving on. It has been a true privilege to help lead this business from pre-revenue to $100B annualized revenue. I’m humbled by the many customers who have said they wouldn’t be what they are without AWS, thankful to our many partners, and grateful to my passionate and innovative teammates. AWS will be in great hands with Matt and the incredible leadership team. I’m looking forward to taking some time off with family, while taking the opportunity to think about my next adventure!

Our thoughts are with everyone in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil impacted by the devastating flooding. We’ve activated our AWS Disaster Response team in the region. They’re working with Help.NGO to capture high-resolution aerial images of flooded areas in order to support rescue operations. We’re also helping monitor equipment and personnel to keep first responders safe and coordinated. aboutamazon.com/news/communi…

Today marks a significant milestone for the telecom industry. @telefonica_de announced it will build a new 5G Cloud Core on @awscloud, done in collaboration with @nokia. This is the first major telecom operator with an existing network to announce it will run its 5G core in the cloud. Telefónica Germany can now take advantage of full automation and elasticity at scale—all with full data encryption, and the most flexible, reliable, and secure #cloud computing environment. Plus, they can more easily deploy updates to improve customer experience, helping deliver on their vision of building the network of the future. reuters.com/business/media-t…

Our goal has always been to make transformative tech like GenAI accessible and easy to use for developers. Today, we’re announcing a new capability in Amazon Bedrock to do just that. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/bui… We're introducing Amazon Bedrock Studio (available in preview), a web-based experience designed to accelerate the development of GenAI applications by providing a rapid prototyping environment with Bedrock features, including Knowledge Bases, Agents, and Guardrails. With Amazon Bedrock Studio, developers can: ⚪ Easily interact with a wide range of LLMs and foundation models ⚪ Collaborate on projects with cross-functional teams ⚪ Leverage a user-friendly interface with playground mode for iterative development ⚪ Seamlessly integrate proprietary data sources, systems, and APIs ⚪ Benefit from centralized access management, policy enforcement, and responsible AI capabilities

.@awscloud is investing an additional $9 billion (SG$12B) into our cloud computing infrastructure in Singapore. Our investments are expected to support over 12K jobs a year, and contribute $17.6 billion (SG$23.7B) to Singapore’s GDP by 2028. We also announced a new flagship #AI program in collaboration with the Singapore Government and government agencies to help enterprises, startups, and communities accelerate their adoption of AI & generative AI. The program will support AI research and development, and includes a series of AI and professional certification programs to train 5,000 people a year on AI skills over the next three years. straitstimes.com/tech/amazon…

Someone celebrated a big birthday over the weekend. Our family’s beloved cat, Pepper, turned 20! 🎉 We marked the occasion by giving him a cat art book, and taking a trip down memory lane. Can’t believe it’s been two decades since we brought Pepper home from the shelter. And he’s still going strong!

Excited to see @Forbes highlight the first cohort of startups in our new Compute for Climate Fellowship. This program provides funding and cloud resources to help founders who are using high performance computing and #GenerativeAI to address #ClimateChange. We are proud to support innovators like @RealtaFusion, a pioneering startup developing compact fusion energy systems to decarbonize industrial heat and power. With #AWS cloud credits and access to interconnected CPUs/GPUs, Realta can run crucial simulations at unprecedented speed—work that would require supercomputing resources that are typically limited and have long waitlists. forbes.com/sites/annefield/2…

Covered a lot of ground with @jonfortt today, from AWS’s multibillion-dollar AI business & rapid innovation for customers, to our $100B annualized revenue run rate milestone. As always, we’re taking a long-term view on creating the capabilities customers will need, and building on our strong track record of both security and operational excellence.
